No virtual machines startable - no entry in library

Hello,

after a click I don't remember (shame on me) my library is completely empty and I'm not able to start a virtual machine anymore. Prior to this harmful click I was able to start and create virtual machines.

I'm running VMWare Workstation 12 on Windows 7 as host system.

How can I reset the library so it will accept new entries again?

Best regards,

Norbert

Is the library displayed, and empty, or doesn't it show up at all?

In case it doesn't show up, go to View -> Customize and enable it (or press F9).

If the library is empty, register the VM's again via the File -> Open menu.

Hello Andre,

The displayed library is empty.VMWare_Library.jpg

I'm able to see the empty library and I'm able to toggle the library by pressing F9.

If I try to register a VM again via File->Open just nothing happens after I doubleclicked the vmx-file.
